- is actually the WRONG answer, as any ompetent LL pilot will know. No, we would all attempt to find a way around the 'hard centre' (if necessary) and rejoin the route the other side, apart from which this route (and 'yours' from Aldergrove to INS) did not require flight over the Mull! So, 'turn left and follow the coast' is the right answer for this mission. DNCO for you! How did your "very many sorties in piston, medium multi-jet and in LL fast jet a/c near and over those sinister hills" go?
